How to Build Brochures (Mimeo Print)

The first step to building a document in Mimeo Print is to upload your print-ready files as PDFs. Check out this article for more help on uploading.

Once your file is uploaded, select brochures from the “Create Menu.” Choose here what kind of brochure you want.

In the first screen, you will choose which files to add. Depending on which type of brochure you are building, you can only add a certain number of pages. For example, for the trifold brochure, you can only use up to 2 pages. On this screen, you can also choose whether your brochure will be printed in black and white or in color.

(Since a brochure is printed on the front and back of one page, the entire brochure will either be black and white or color.)

In the next screen, customize your document in the real-time proof. You can change the brochure type, change the paper stock, and change the orientation when flipping the page. If your document is set up with crop marks, you can also enable Print to Edge for full bleed.

Finally, you can choose whether you want the brochures to be shipped flat or if you want Mimeo to fold them for you. No matter what you choose, the preview shows you what the brochure will look like once it is folded.

Once you are satisfied with the proof, update your quantity and add it to your cart.

Mimeo Vocabulary:

“File” is the PDF you upload into our library. “Document” is the final product you build such as a binder, notebook, or booklet, which can be comprised of multiple files.
